The first photograph taken at Achnagairn House near Inverness was awarded 4th place in the Reception category.
The judges commented."Of all the fireworks photos submitted, this was the best one. It has an uncluttered background, the fireworks are sharp and the couple are not smack center in the photo. Very nicely done".

The second photograph taken at Oran Mor in Glasgow was awarded 11th place in the Scene Setters category.
The judges commented. "A good overview perhaps from a remote camera. I wish the waiter at the bottom left wasn’t in the frame; he distracts".

If only I had taken the time to take the waiter out of the picture maybe it would have scored higher. It is these small details that make such a big difference in this caliber of awards.
Now you may be thinking that 11th place doesn't sound that great, but trust me it is. Only the top 20 photographs are awarded in each category, which are taken from thousands of entries from all over the world, so to get a mention at all is big deal.
